Question

How should a child with otitis media with yellow discharge be treated?

Answer

For children with otitis media, anti-inflammatory medications can be used based on the symptoms. In severe cases, regional treatments such as anti-inflammatory ear drops can be added. For children with obvious ear pain, painkillers can be administered. If there is a fever, fever-reducing medication can be given. In severe cases, medical attention should be sought promptly, and if symptoms such as perforation of the eardrum occur, immediate surgical treatment is required. At the same time, it is important to provide the child with a light diet, enhance nutritional supplementation, and help them recover quickly.
